Big Ten Football Game

  • Description

    Rules for this game were extrapolated from the AGPC Online rules archives;

    Big Ten Football

    Dice driven football game from the late 1920's produced by the Sanwah Keen Game Co., 625 East Market Street, Stockton, California.

    Game is played over a 20 minute time-frame divided into 10 minute halves. Game has board with results listed depending on if a pass or run is called by the Offensive player. Different codes show Penalties, Fumbles, Interceptions etc.

    One unusual feature of the game is a connotation at the bottom of the rule book which states that; "The Big Ten game board provides an excellent medium for following football games as they are broadcasted play by play over the radio. When used for this purpose the dice are of course discarded. By following the broadcasted game in this manner an accurate picture of every situation is presented to the audience at all times."

    Note that the Big Ten in the 1920s included the University of Chicago, who left the league in 1946. (The league expanded back to ten teams when Michigan State joined in 1950.)
